A PRAYER...THE OPEN SPACES

Dear Lord, I love the wild and open placescreations of your hand in old and new . . .Let me but live where there are mighty tracesof stately trees, and rocks, and skies of blue!Give me a heart as open as the plainsa mind that reaches high as mountain peaks . . .a soul that soars above the winds and rainswhere only God through radiance speaks!Give me of kindness, love, a goodly measureof sympathy, that flows like rivers deep . . .devotion, reverence, and your pleasurelet me the precepts of your wisdom keep!Let me be as crystal snow-flakes fallingthat blanket earth with dazzling whiteness and pride . . .then guide me when I hear your loving voice callingto span the stretches of the Great Divide!

Margie,The greatest compliment I can give a person is that they bring out the best in others. Your beautiful words do just that, you can tell by the kind of comments that people leave on your blog.If you can do this with just words on a blog, I cant evenimagine what a blessing it is to know you in person.

Hi annYour visits to me are so nice!You make me smile!Thank you!Every day, I ask God to give me new eyes, and new ears...so that I might not miss all the beauty around me....Then...I am able to write about all that beauty in my poetry!
